Ms. Suleiman would like to open a full day preschool for ages 13 months to five years old. There will be approximately 50 students and eight staff inembers. Ms. Nader clarified that the number of students is lower than submitted in the operations statement. Ms. Suleiman explained that since there is no outdoor play space, the state requires that the indoor play space be at least 1,440 square feet for up to 50 students. Therefore the floor plan changed and the number of students was reduced. Ms. Nader asked about parking. Ms. Suleiman stated that the adjacent property owner gave them permission to use their parking spaces. Ms. Nader was concerned about having enough parking spaces for the other businesses in the plaza throughout the day. She was also concerned about children crossing the street if parking is used at the plaza across Brookpark Park Road Extension from their location. Ms. Suleiman stated that there are approximately 15 spaces to the east of the plaza for their use. Ms. Lieber suggested that the applicant submit documentation showing owner permission to use the parking spaces. Mr. Malone asked about the schedule. Ms. Suleiman stated that there would be a two-hour drop off window and the kids would be picked up throughout the day. Mr. Schumann asked about her experience, Ms. Suleiman has worked in the daycare system for over 20 years. Ms. Nader asked if the state licensing would be assigned to the location or to the ewner, Ms. Suleiman indicated that the state license would be specific to this facility. Mr. Schumann asked when the business should open, Ms. Suleiman hopes to be open by August 2018. Mr. Weston stated that usually the parents will drop the kids off inside and then leave quick enough so a queue does not form. There is not usually a need for many parking spots at any given time. Ms. Nader felt more comfortable with her parking concern after Mr. Weston's comments.
